Worried Man Blues
Went across the river, I lay down to sleep
Went across the river, I lay down to sleep
When I woke up, had shackles on my feet
It takes a worried man to sing a worried song
It takes a worried man to sing a worried song
I'm worried now but I won't be worried long
Twenty one links of chain around my leg
Twenty one links of chain around my leg
And on each link there's an initial of my name
It takes a worried man to sing a worried song
It takes a worried man to sing a worried song
I'm worried now but I won't be worried long
Asked the judge what's gonna be my fine
Asked the judge what's gonna be my fine
Twenty one years on that rocky mountain line
It takes a worried man to sing a worried song
It takes a worried man to sing a worried song
I'm worried now but I won't be worried long
Train pulled out is twenty one coaches long
Train pulled out is twenty one coaches long
And the woman I love is on that train and gone
It takes a worried man to sing a worried song
It takes a worried man to sing a worried song
I'm worried now but I won't be worried long
Twenty one years to pay my awful crime
Twenty one years to pay my awful crime
Twenty one years and I still got ninety nine
It takes a worried man to sing a worried song
It takes a worried man to sing a worried song
Well I'm worried now but I won't be worried long
I was worried before, ain't worried no more
Went across the river, I lay down to sleep
When I woke up, had shackles on my feet
It takes a worried man to sing a worried song
It takes a worried man to sing a worried song
I'm worried now but I won't be worried long
Twenty one links of chain around my leg
Twenty one links of chain around my leg
And on each link there's an initial of my name
It takes a worried man to sing a worried song
It takes a worried man to sing a worried song
I'm worried now but I won't be worried long
Asked the judge what's gonna be my fine
Asked the judge what's gonna be my fine
Twenty one years on that rocky mountain line
It takes a worried man to sing a worried song
It takes a worried man to sing a worried song
I'm worried now but I won't be worried long
Train pulled out is twenty one coaches long
Train pulled out is twenty one coaches long
And the woman I love is on that train and gone
It takes a worried man to sing a worried song
It takes a worried man to sing a worried song
I'm worried now but I won't be worried long
Twenty one years to pay my awful crime
Twenty one years to pay my awful crime
Twenty one years and I still got ninety nine
It takes a worried man to sing a worried song
It takes a worried man to sing a worried song
Well I'm worried now but I won't be worried long
I was worried before, ain't worried no more
